Extraction of Acid with BaseWater and diethyl ether are shaken in a separatory funnel with a small amount of red indophenol. The non-ionic indophenol remains in the ether layer, coloring it red. Addition of sodium hydroxide converts the indophenol to its blue ionic acid anion which is extracted into the water layer turning it blue.

Reactions : AcidBaseRxns (20 Variations)In order to answer the following questions, write the net ionic equation for the reaction between equal volumes of 0.10 M solutions of the following acid and base:

KOH(aq) + HBr(aq)

What are the reaction products? Does the reaction yield an acidic, basic, or neutral aqueous solution?

A Dramatic Classroom Demonstration of Limiting Reagent Using the Vinegar and Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate ReactionRomklao Artdej and Tienthong ThongpanchangThis demonstration, appropriate for high school chemistry level and recommended for a large classroom presentation, is designed to illustrate the concept of limiting reagent via a series of experiments in which increasing amounts of sodium bicarbonate are added to a fixed amount of vinegar is fixed until the volume of carbon dioxide generated remains constant. Artdej, Romklao; Thongpanchang, Tienthong. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1382.

Acids (GCMP)David M. WhisnantAcids: this is a resource in the collection "General Chemistry Multimedia Problems". We will observe the reaction of sodium bicarbonate with three acid solutions. General Chemistry Multimedia Problems ask students questions about experiments they see presented using videos and images. The questions asked apply concepts from different parts of an introductory course, encouraging students to decompartmentalize the material.

Oxides (GCMP)David M. WhisnantOxides: this is a resource in the collection "General Chemistry Multimedia Problems". In this problem we will explore the properties of the oxides of a few elements. We will add samples of the oxides to universal indicator solution and learn about the acid-base character of the oxides. General Chemistry Multimedia Problems ask students questions about experiments they see presented using videos and images. The questions asked apply concepts from different parts of an introductory course, encouraging students to decompartmentalize the material.
